1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-35525)
CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in the INTERSEC query processing. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-35527)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when handling ALTER TABLE for views that have a nested FROM clause. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-20223)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the fts5UnicodeTokenize() function in ext/fts5/fts5_tokenize.c, which caused the unicode61 tokenizer configured to treat unicode "control-characters" (class Cc), was treating embedded nul characters as tokens. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and bypass implemented security restrictions.
